In the last two decades, results obtained from structural reliability analysis (SRA) have increasingly led to formation of strategies for future safe operation of corroding oil and gas pipelines. 1-8 ...

Modeling the corrosivity of liquids transported over the life of a pipeline can determine the current condition of pipelines in which in-line inspection is not possible. Such modeling also allows ...

The maintenance and integrity of pipeline networks are critical to global energy infrastructure. Pipeline inspection and pigging operations employ specialised devices – commonly known as PIGs ...

Pipeline integrity inspection verifies that gathering, transmission, flowline, and export pipelines can safely and reliably transport hydrocarbons at the intended operating envelope without loss of ...

At-a-Glance: Conduct offshore pipeline NDT by combining in-line inspection (ILI: MFL/UT/EMAT, geometry/IMU) with external ROV/diver campaigns (visual, CP, UT/PAUT, eddy-current) under a risk-based ...

The recent collaboration between OII, a provider of oil and gas equipment and services, and TTE yielded remarkable results in the form of Freedom AUV. Designed to meet the ambitious goals of TTE to ...

PG&E will inspect more than 7 miles of gas transmission pipeline in San Ramon, Dublin and Livermore through the end of July. PG&E said Wednesday in a statement that the inspections ensure that the ...
